Chapter 2096 Invitation, Long Sword and Night Action
After leaving the church, the group did not return to the manor, but went to Belindle Big Ben in the city center. When Shad and Shade first came to the local area, they heard the man who sold him the "Eternal Light" say
Just like the others, this place is not open to the public. Only important members of the Belindel family and the city council can come.
As evening approached, the Parliament Square was crowded with people. Seeing that it was getting late, Shade originally wanted to say goodbye and leave to go find Mr. Bernhardt to explain the [Dragon Eater Order], but the witch insisted on letting Shade stay.
:
"You helped me today. I want to show you my favorite thing in this city."
The door of the bell tower was opened, and the tower guard watched respectfully as the group entered the interior of the bell tower. The elevator controlled by the underground high-power steam engine was at the innermost side, and even if seven people stood on it together, it would not seem crowded.
Miss Matilda pulled the gate switch on the side pillar. Amidst the roar coming from the underground, the elevator smoothly took everyone from the bottom to the top.
On the viewing terrace, Shade and the Witch stood by the railing together and watched the city at sunset. On the nearby Taton River, sailors and trackers had finished work, and swarms of flying boats could even be seen above the dock area in the distance.
Moving seagulls. The Parliament Square was crowded with people, vendors, speakers standing on high platforms speaking, and tourists from other places, all watching this novel scene.
“The scenery here is indeed very nice.”
Shade commented, but Miss Belindel was not thinking about this at this time:
"You know, my aunt just rejected me again."
Shade looked at her unexpectedly, and he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to talk to him about her family's private affairs.
"This is not a private matter. Since you are walking around Yuewan City, you also need to know some secrets among the nobles."
Looking at the city scenery below, Bella Belindel briefly described the story of the past:
"When Aunt Phyllis Belindel was young, her appearance was only slightly worse than mine. This is a very cliché love story of an aristocratic family. The aunt fell in love with a poor boy, but her grandfather opposed her choice. This is
Things went on at home for several years, and finally Aunt Phyllis became a nun and never returned home."
"Where's that man?"
"In the winter of the second year after my aunt became a nun, she was beaten to death by someone for seducing the lover of a wealthy local businessman."
She said lightly:
"The ancient legend involves everyone in the seven glorious Yuewan families. I hope that my aunt can temporarily move back to live with us and help me find some information or contact those distant relatives. But she doesn't seem to want to be with me at all.
Belindel is involved."
After sighing softly, she finally asked Shade why he was looking for her this afternoon. Only then did Shade have the opportunity to talk about the four different targets he learned from the bathhouse and what happened last night, especially the [Dragon Cult]
matter:
"Miss Benanis told me that the [Dragon Eater Order] has a fragment of a poem related to the chosen one of 'Light'. This time they appeared locally, and they sent out a modified seven-ring warlock.
, this is not like a small operation."
"[Dragon Cult], [Light Worshipers Training Society]. Light and dragon, the ancient god of light, 'Dragon of Light'. I understand."
As if her mood was affected by the dusk scenery, she nodded half-heartedly, not even thinking of divination:
"The progress is good. Does this matter involve the Black family, the Wood family and the Hawthorne family?"
She thought for a moment:
"Although I trust your ability, you are a big local noble after all. After dinner, I will give you some blank stationery with my personal seal on it. This should be able to help you."
Being able to give this kind of item to Shade shows that she trusts him very much:
"Is there anything else to do later?"
Shade nodded:
"I'm going to find my friend. He is also helping to investigate this matter. I'm worried that he doesn't know about the [Dragon Feast Order] yet."
So the witch swallowed the invitation "Would you like to have dinner together later?":
"What about tonight?"
"It should be fine."
"Well, bring the relics and spellcasting materials tonight. I have read some interesting information from the family's old books. We may have an adventure outside the city tonight."
"To visit ancient ruins or something else?"
Shade asked curiously, and Miss Belindel thought for a moment:
"If my interpretation and divination are correct, it should be an ancient ruin or a hidden cave, but I don't know the specific situation. We will go deep into the northern part of the Moon Bay area and search in the Black Forest, Whispering Hills and Poisonous Swamp.
clue."
Shade laughed:
"These three place names seem to be taken from fairy tales."
Facing the setting sun at the top of the bell tower, the smile on his face seemed so charming to the witch. Miss Belindel tried hard to control her expression and also showed a faint smile:
"The naming of the forests, mountains and swamps in the Moon Bay area all come from an older era. Such names were popular in that era. Do you know the 'St. George Stone Bridge' at the exit on the northeast side of the city? We are there tonight
Convergence.”
After bidding farewell to the witch, Shade went to the autopsy room in Spider Alley and informed Mr. Ptolemy Albert of the information about the [Dragon Eater Order] and asked him to pass it on to Mr. Bernhardt.
Then he threw the glass slipper back home, took the cat to have dinner, then changed into clothes and started getting ready for the evening.
The exit of the Dragon's Nest is not far from the St. George Stone Bridge, so Shade is not in a hurry. After dinner, he put together the "Dragon Scale Coins" he had obtained from the "Dragon Altar" in the Dragon's Nest in recent days.
Take it to the basement, then take a straight sword that you got while practicing swordsmanship with Sister Devlin in the mountain top sacrificial field, enter the [Earth Core Furnace] in the basement, consume the experience of "traveling the earth", and use those
The "Dragon Scale Coin" melted the already strong straight sword.
Just like what Miss Carina said, the straight sword that was resmelted from the "Dragon Scale Coin" had a layer of light traces of dragon scales on the metal surface. It was also contaminated by the [Earth Core Furnace] smelting.
The power of the earth was originally just a strong and sharp straight sword, but now it can be regarded as a very good alchemical weapon.
After dancing around in the basement for a few times, the weight of the straight sword did not change, but it became inexplicably easier to use. Although it is not as exaggerated as the roar of a dragon when it is swung, if you don't compare it with the relic-type long sword, this should be regarded as Shade's.
The best long sword I can find.
Because he doesn't want to reveal his identity, [Night Watcher] must not be brought with him, so Shade plans to bring this weapon to participate in tonight's operation. Although Miss Belindel said that it will not take a long time, she can't find the specific location.
He returned to the city in the middle of the night, but Shade decided it was better to be cautious.
He planned to set off from home at seven o'clock, but when night fell and the street lights around the square came on, a private carriage without a sign stopped at the door of Shade's house. Then Lesia took Agelina and the maids,
Entered No. 6, Saint Teresa Square.
Seeing Shade looking like he was about to go out, Lesia, who put on light makeup, asked curiously:
"What are you going to do? To meet that young elf girl?"
Agelina's little ears on the side moved and she listened calmly.
"Of course not, let's go to Moon Bay."
Shade put the cat on the back of the sofa, stepped forward and hugged Lesia, looking at his beautiful princess:
"Good evening, do you want to stay here for the night? I'll leave in a moment and be back before ten o'clock. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the goods you had in Yuewan are all ready."
Lesia nodded and finally managed to leave Yodel Palace for the night. Even if Shade came back in the middle of the night, she would never leave because of this:
"I'll give you a reward tonight... What's going on over at Yuewan that requires you to work so late at night?"
"The witch over there wants me to help. The great witch of fate, she is investigating some things."
Agelina's little ears moved again, and Lesia shook her head;
"I heard Carina say that you met the witch in the Moon Bay area, but is she going too far and asking you to help so late? Really, please be safe, I'll wait for you at home."
Although she complained, she did not stop Shade. Shade talked to the two princesses for a while, and then walked to the basement.
Agelina asked her sister curiously:
"Did you just talk about elves?"
Lesia glanced at her sister and knew what she was thinking:
"Yes, this race should be mentioned in the book you are reading. There are a large number of students of different races in the three major colleges, but most of them are current students. Isn't it time for summer off-campus practice? The young man Sha De knew before
The elf has come to the local area. She has blond hair and looks pretty good. After all, she is an elf, so there are differences from humans. She is definitely older than Aunt Carina, but she looks as young as you."
"Then what is her relationship with Shade?"
Agelina asked again, and Lesia smiled and asked:
"Why, do you feel a sense of crisis? Oh, my Agelina, my dear sister, human beings have limits. Time will make girls grow old mercilessly, but the elf's appearance will not change in probably decades.
.However, if the level of the ring sorcerer is high enough, you can learn many magical and secret techniques that can stop the appearance. For example, Shade has a "Secret of Immortality", which is a secret book passed down by the demigod witches of the Fifth Age.
But if you want to learn, just one link is not enough."
She wanted to inspire her sister, and Agelina was indeed inspired, nodding quickly:
"Yes, yes, humans have limits."
I encouraged myself in my heart, and then became more and more curious about the rumored elf.
"Meow~"
Mia hoped that the women who broke into the house would be quiet for a while and not disturb him while he waited for Shade to come home.
